Damn Tony, it really sucks to hear you get flak and people type sh!t in your video comments, when your production quality and professional / experience insight is the things viewers should try to enjoy. I'm just happy you gave this legendary tune a whirl! Love your work, big supporter right here.
@@LaDeCR It's all good. People who consume youtube tend to not contemplate other aspects beyond their viewing experience on the platform. The process of creation is more complicated than people think.
@@ProjectStickman I know. I would hate for me to experiment on my own channel and see the differences in performance and further learn the platform. Horrible idea 💡
You need to react to Reona Shall we dance, those trumpets and drums solos in the music video is epic and you will enjoy those different instruments being played in the song.
The Cowboy Bebop soundtrack is an album in its own right. There are so many great tracks and so much happening. Honestly, I wish more bands sounded like this.
I´m sure everyone will agree that the full Cowboy Bebop´s Soundtrack is a master piece. If you like Yoko Kano, I recommend the wolf's rain's OST and also Escaflowne's OST.
I second these recommendations. Excellent music from Ms. Kanno. Also any music from the Ghost in the Shell Standalone Complex anime would also be a great listen with more sci-fi/cyberpunk vibes. Also by Yoko Kanno.
Well now...I did a comparison listening last night to this and the 6 minute version. The progression stays the same as we have a few more verses. There are some different fills (great bass playing) but not a huge difference. The best part is the vamp section where they stretch their legs musically a bit, it's about 30 seconds long. I was expecting something very different for comments that say "so much more" 🤷♂️
If you're curious about the song title, many of the episode names and song titles were in reference to jazz and blues. This one is in reference to the series of albums put out in response to the British invasion which caused a blues revival. They were compilations of work by guys like Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf all titled The Real Folk Blues with follow ups called More Real Folk Blues.
Back in the late 90s I did a pirate type internet broadcast with chat side channel where I would chat with friends and followers. They could request songs. I never got stumped on a song request. This was the piece I used to close out my show and Tank to open the show. The wild west days of copywrite infringement. No one cared back then. No one realized they should care as it was all so new. I do not know more then enough Japanese to say more than hello, etc. But, you can feel what this song is about without understanding the lyrics.
Cowboy Bebop has some sick OST like-Space Lion, Rain, Blue, Call Me Call Me, Gotta Knock a Little Harder....check any of them or from other works of the director Shinichiro Watanabe, who's known for his genre bending animes and sick as f*** OST they contain
Cowboy bebop is my favourite show ever, definitely my favourite soundtrack as well, love a ton, would be awesome if you did more breakdowns cause this was great to watch
Cowboy Bebop is about a group of strangers that turn into kind of an awkward family due to circumstances while trying to find their own closure. Their jouneys are presented in a mix of genres trying to replicate the improvisation of a jazz session. The show has many layers beyond those, but that's how I'd describe the meat of it. Recommend to give it a try! It's not perfect but can be an unique experience.
Tracks like this, along with much of the Hellsing OST (eg Logos Naki World), got played a lot in my household in the early 2000's. I love when an anime drops some bluesy tracks, It never fails to set the mood. Like when the insert song "Dust" first played in Kekkai Sensen 👌.
Bebop seriously has one of the most popular well-received soundtracks in all of anime. Tony could milk the shit out of it and I'd be 100% there for it tbh.
Definitely try to sneak a listen to full version of this song. I will also reccomend you check out the Bebop soundtrack. My favorite song is Space Lion.
This is one of my favorites from Cowboy Bebop. Maybe you'd consider doing a breakdown of the full song sometime? It's like 4 or 5 minutes, either way nice video man.
There's a great version of this they did during covid that has some really unique differences that might be a fun watch even without reacting. You should check it out.
Cowboy Bebop is one of those tent pole anime, the kind of show that can get non-anime watchers hooked on the genre. The premise is bounty hunters... in space. Most episodes are self-contained stories which occasionally drive forward the main story. It is dark and gritty and rooted in realism in its depiction of space travel. The whole show takes place within our solar system, on planets and moons that have been fully or partially terraformed. This is legitimately one of the best anime ever made. If you liked The Expanse, you will like Cowboy Bebop.
The English title (and the lyrics they're derived from) is just a teensy little bit "broken" English. A fluent English speaker would probably say it's closer to "The Real Folks' Blues", as they don't mean "folk" as in that pasture country folksong, they mean "folk" as just "the people".
Didn't see anyone actually explain what Cowboy Bebop was about. So it's about a group of bounty hunters on the space ship the Bebop. There's more to it of course but spoilers. Couple of my favorite songs are rain (both vocals) and Call me Call. It's only 26 episodes and I highly recommend it.
Ya I totally get why you expected blues type music coz of the title. I thought the same when I first heard this. Now I think coz of the lyrics the "blues" in the title isn't so much the musical definition but the literary figure of speech for being down or sad (having "the blues"). and the whole vibe of the song does fit that + the lyrics :)
I always laughed at the title having folk right in the title but not having folk elements, but it's the "real folk" blues (as in the type of blues that us REAL folks have to deal with, ha ha).
you should really listen to the whole ost when you have the time. Yuko Kano is a genius and you will be blown away also, I enjoy your usual longer analysis much much more
Please react to Land of the Lustrous OP, highly regarded as having some of the most complex time signatures for an anime OP, or even for any song for that matter, it's insane
I know you gotta look up for the performance of your videos, it’s ok. It’s just that I’m a fan of this song in particular just as I’m a fan of many other AOT full songs. It’s just my personal take but I think this is worthwhile reacting to it fully. Do as your please, man it’s your channel after all. Love your content!
Thank you for reacting to this song. Cowboy Bebop is about a group of ragtag bounty hunters who battle villains and their own personal demons. I definitely recommend Escaflowne's OST, especially Sora: ruclips.net/video/OjB3SQ1EXAU/видео.html&ab_channel=animelomixer3
You listened the version that was cut for the TV slot. Which is okay but maybe listen to the full version. I believe you did the same for the Jojo ones. And you probably don't have all the time in the world but the full version tend to be whole new experience. And just a suggestion maybe read the lyrics. A lot of anime have them all in English subs. Many animes even alternate from English subs Japanese subs with each episode in their intros and outro songs. That may not add to the experience but a lot of time is spent on these pieces of music. Especially cowboy bebop. And sometimes paints a picture on what you will or should have seen.

An album ? No, not just an album. It's a complete discography of its own. In total, there is something like 6 hour of original music.
I´m sure everyone will agree that the full Cowboy Bebop´s Soundtrack is a master piece. If you like Yoko Kano, I recommend the wolf's rain's OST and also Escaflowne's OST.

Count me as not in everyone then
Seat belts lives.. Yoko breaks me heart. Endlessly.
There is so much more to this song in the full version
Yeah kinda a miss opportunity.

Personally I like even more the alt key version that plays in the final episode, "See You Space Cowboy" I think it's called.
@@Xagzan sweet, I'll check that out also
@@DrumRollTonyReacts check out the special performance of Real folk blues uploaded on the Crunchyroll Dubs ;) it's live and by far the best version

The real folk blues just makes me think of summer Saturday nights at 1:30am, all kids out of the pool, pilot candidate is next.
This is the ending theme so I really recommend the full version!

You need to check out "Call Me, Call Me" from the Cowboy Bebop OST. Such an incredible arrangement.
I vote for this. Hard boiled eggs ftw🏆
@@klaesashford1966 still carrying that weight
_Oh yes._
You need to watch the Special Performance version of this song that came out like 3 years ago. It's absolute perfection
The one during covid?
Never thought a 5 second soundbite could make me happy. First 5 seconds of this video earned you this Thumbs Up.
Another great jazzy comp from CB is called "Space Lion". Also the song to the finale called "Blue". I love both!
You should try Gotta Knock a Little Harder from Cowboy Bebop too, one of my fave
+1, very nice lyrics too
Cowboy Bebop is an episodic series about a group of bounty hunters simply trying to find a way to pay the bills
I really do carry that weight. I cannot hear her belt out reeeal fooolk bluuues without tearing up lol. This show meant a lot to me.

⏩ Video Question: Do you prefer smooth 🎷or bluesy 🎸
For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
Bluesy
I like both
we need full version. this ending version short

Recommend to give it a try! It's not perfect but can be an unique experience.
Also, try the epic version where a bunch of artists made a tribute for this song: ruclips.net/video/8GwE0wwMmKE/видео.html
You should definitely watch the series. Every one has a unique musical theme, and the story is intensely good.
Tracks like this, along with much of the Hellsing OST (eg Logos Naki World), got played a lot in my household in the early 2000's.
I love when an anime drops some bluesy tracks, It never fails to set the mood. Like when the insert song "Dust" first played in Kekkai Sensen 👌.
Yesss I hope this is the full song!!!
It’s not :(
You should totally react to more Cowboy Bebop songs! It's all awesome, groovy jazz!
Bebop seriously has one of the most popular well-received soundtracks in all of anime. Tony could milk the shit out of it and I'd be 100% there for it tbh.
As a guitar player the guitar riff keeps me hooked
Please do the full version 🙏🏻
Today is my lucky day
Everything I love (and what i want to discover) is in this channel .
Definitely try to sneak a listen to full version of this song. I will also reccomend you check out the Bebop soundtrack. My favorite song is Space Lion.
This is one of my favorites from Cowboy Bebop. Maybe you'd consider doing a breakdown of the full song sometime? It's like 4 or 5 minutes, either way nice video man.
"What Planet is This" is also a great big band song. One of my favorites
Love this song, and your reaction man. Keep em coming! ^^
There's a great version of this they did during covid that has some really unique differences that might be a fun watch even without reacting. You should check it out.
We need more Cowboy Bebop music!
The real folk blues, has such a laid back, yet somber feel to it, exactly like Spike Spiegel from the show.
Cowboy Bepop ost is really good! Nice video!
Woah such a nice ending song
Cowboy Bebop ost is goated

A shame you didn't do the full version but its an amazing song all the same
Shame? Bruh why flame over something so silly?

I think we all agree on the fact that Mai Yamane has an absurdly great voice.
there's also rain by steve conte , words that we couldn't say , call me call me ...
See you, Space Cowboy. Bang!!
Watch the full version if you can please!
Easiest way to find out what Cowboy Bebop is, is watching it. You wont be disappointed, thats guaranteed.
There is much more good music in it.
You should listen to the full version of the Real Folk Blues, it's magical af :3
You know tank, you know everything. xD
Remember, everyone "knows" the opening and ending songs, but as with books, best stuff's between the front and back cover :)
polkadot stingray is awesome
Bro listen to the entire bebop ost. It’s not only the best anime ost but possibly the best soundtrack to anything ever ….I’m not even joking
Call me call me, also from the Cowboy Bebop ost is another great song.
Didn't see anyone actually explain what Cowboy Bebop was about. So it's about a group of bounty hunters on the space ship the Bebop. There's more to it of course but spoilers. Couple of my favorite songs are rain (both vocals) and Call me Call. It's only 26 episodes and I highly recommend it.
the full version of the song is 7 minutes or so, and still has a fade out at the end.
Check out Platina Jazz's version of this song. It's so different and I'm a hundred percent sure that you're going to fall in love with it
Here's the link to their version ruclips.net/video/VRyzod7bNLQ/видео.html

I'll check it out tonight for sure
@@DrumRollTonyReacts you better buckle up cause the whole thing is about 4 hours long 😅
@@romeo1771 the bebop ost is nuts!! Lol they weren’t PLAYIN when they made it!!
I screamed the title
You REALLY need to listen/react to the long version of this. All anime Openings/Endings tend to be minute and a half
THE BOTTOM LEFT SUGGESTED IN THIS VIDEO IS THE LIVE VERSION ITS SO MUCH BETTER
Mai Yamane is an incredible vocalist 🔥
It was short because you watched the TV cut version, not the full version
Please react to Land of the Lustrous OP, highly regarded as having some of the most complex time signatures for an anime OP, or even for any song for that matter, it's insane
i know these days everyone's raving about sawano hiroyuki for best anime ost composer but in the 90s yoko kanno ruled the anime world
You have to listen 2 ost songs from Bebop: "Cowboy BeBop- Ask DNA" and "Cowboy Bebop OST 4 - Gotta knock a little harder".
It was quick because that was like half the song lol!
i have a suggestion, can you react to all Bocchi The Rock Ost including the Op & All Ed songs?
Yes.
Really want to hear you react to some more Yoko Kanno, especially Bad Dog No Biscuit. This music is under-rated.
Man. This one doesn’t have the solo does it?
You gotta see the full version. Regardless of on video or not.
momento Yoko Kanno
Easily one of my favorite songs to play on bass.
love the bassline but i cant really play it unfortunately, its pretty hard
Now "Blue".
Damn cowboy bebop won that patreon pol like someone stole money from it 😂😂😂
Polkadot are awesome too!
joder es cine🚬
I would like to see your reaction to the ending theme of "Samurai champloo" his name is "Shiki no Uta" it is very good
PLEASE REACT TO THE LIVE VERSION OF THIS THEY DID FOR COVID LOCKDOWN
That would be interesting for sure
I know you gotta look up for the performance of your videos, it’s ok. It’s just that I’m a fan of this song in particular just as I’m a fan of many other AOT full songs. It’s just my personal take but I think this is worthwhile reacting to it fully. Do as your please, man it’s your channel after all. Love your content!
You should react to Rush from Cowboy Bebop as well!
Shiki no Uta from Samurai Champloo next time ?
Melhor end ever
I love Mai Yamane
Really should always listen to the full versions instead! I like these videos though!
Life is not that bad, as long as it only ends once.
sadly not the full song, would love a full song review, this was a really mood breaker :(
『巌窟王(Gankutsuou): The Count of Monte Cristo』 OP&ED recommen
Thank you for reacting to this song. Cowboy Bebop is about a group of ragtag bounty hunters who battle villains and their own personal demons.
I definitely recommend Escaflowne's OST, especially Sora: ruclips.net/video/OjB3SQ1EXAU/видео.html&ab_channel=animelomixer3
カウボーイビバップ最高👍
Bro you need to listen to flcl ost it’s a banger!
reacciona a minami konomachi ni hare wa konai por favor, no te vas a arrepentir
You really should check the anime.. It is FIIREEE💥
I'd recommend a listen to some of the music from Hunt showdown, mainly the instrumental songs.
Should've checked out the whole song smh
Please React To GINTAMA OPENINGS !!! #7

If I end up doing all CB endings I could it on that video.
Would still love if you react to the City of Tears from Hollow Knight, amazing song
Maybe pick something from the Black Mages the final fantasy composers
I mean yeah the name The Real Folk Blues comes from the lyrics not the music vibes.
I don't know how this guy thinks he can qualify a song like this. Do you know muppet who are the Seatbelts anyway? out of your league
Lol I am out of YOUR league 😅😅😅😅
You should react to Asphyxia by Cö Shu Nie it's a good song and I think you'll like it.
It''s the Real Folk... Blues. Not the Real... Folk Blues.
Hey could you react to The Last Judgement/Super Tyrant Theme from Resident Evil 2 Remake?
